The RAF expansion programme in the years leading up to World War II saw the emergence of two superlative fighters, the Supermarine Spitfire and the Hawker Hurricane. This is an examination of the workhorse of the RAF Fighter Command. Although best known for its successes in the Battle of Britain, the Hurricane served throughout the war, with great success over the Western Desert and Malta. This account covers the Hurricane's design, development, and operational career.
